Thermaltake Element Q

[simonw]

New case from Thermaltake called the Element Q.

As far as I can tell, it's just a clone of the Apex MI-008. I guess it is ok if you want to use your existing 5.25" optical drive in a mini ITX build.

I really hope there's a decent PSU that comes with this, unlike the Apex or Rosewill cases.

The fact that it doesn't have APFC isn't a great sign.

Ahh. Didn't notice that. Damn.

That doesn't make sense whatsoever. WTF would you want to release a case with a PSU w/o APFC when the same case with a PSU w/ APFC is offered? Doesn't make sense unless there was some costs reasons I guess.

For a thermaltake product, it doesn't actually look bad. I still prefer my SG05, but I would consider this case if I was building a small rig for a friends/family
